Overview of your Chongqing tour

The old river port while the shutters are still going up, the side alleys most visitors never find, fried dough twists from the short queue, and then the rotating-stage show next door that tells the city's 1949 story without a word of English needed.

FAQs

Is the show in English?

No, and it does not matter: it is movement, music and staging. I brief you on the story before it starts.

Can we do this on a Monday?

Yes; the show runs daily, usually two sittings. I confirm the time when you request.

How do I pay?

After the guide confirms your itinerary you receive a payment link for the 20% deposit (card). The balance is charged 7 days before the tour. Sample policy for the demo.
